TLP160J is a photocoupler produced by TOSHIBA. It consists of a photo triac and an infrared emitting diode. This photocoupler has a small outline, high reliability, and long life. It is mainly used in motor drive, programmable controllers, AC output modules and other fields.
The TLP160J is a miniature flat‑pack photocoupler that combines a photo‑triac with a gallium‑arsenide infrared LED. It is designed for surface‑mount applications such as programmable controllers, AC‑output modules and solid‑state relays.
